Description:

Cities Under the Sea: Coral Reefs offers a first-hand look at coral reefs, with breathtakingly beautiful videos and photos. Ride in a virtual submarine as you move from station to station, exploring seven lab areas on topics such as Living Communities and Adaptation. The experience is quite immersive, and the vast beauty, variety of life forms and information, is quite astonishing.

Features:

• Incredible video footage and still photos of sea inhabitants.
• Seven different laboratories to explore.
• Virtual submarine ride.
• Excellent TeacherÆs Guide is included.

Technical Aspects:

We ran this title on our K6 200 MMX, 32 M RAM and had no difficulties. ThereÆs an option to install the title directly to the hard drive, or run from the CD. We ran it from the CD - installation was no problem, and we didnÆt find any audio or video choppiness. The graphics are marvellous!

Report and Conclusionsn:

Sunburst titles are often found in classrooms because of their high quality content, innovative programming and ease of use. This particular program will share with you Jean-Michel CousteauÆs love, respect for, and awe, of the sea. If your child doesnÆt have access to this title through a classroom, weÆd highly recommend that you consider it for home use.
